weighted keys is nice... fully weighted is like playing a grand piano with nice feel... semi-weighted is ok but of course not same as real piano and non-weighted is still ok especially if you never played an actual piano so you are not used to weighted keys but its all a matter of preference... you should go to a music store with keyboards and do a comparison to see which you prefer to make the best choice

cool... yes we like to see a run down of your final setup when you get your G5 and controller etc. because it sounds like a really sweet setup so far

As far as I know semi-weighted keys don't use any type of lever action weight as a mechanism. This would make them... well... not really weighted at all (in the sense of replicating a piano's hammer mechanism), and consequently don't really feel like a piano at all.
It all gets back to what you want to do with it. If you learn on a non or semi-weighted keyboard and then one day someone askes you to play your new songs on a piano for them, your going to have a hard time. |

I ordered the teaching software but haven't purchased the keyboard yet.
My G5 arrived today. I'll send a photo once I have everything set up. -Kirk

Still need to learn to play the piano keyboard, but the software is pretty good. Even teaches you to read music.
